After this:

Marlowe's room is pretty much like most of the others, really. A table and chair, bathroom (with the door shut), double-bed. Perhaps a few more books then most, and perhaps those books are a little more worn and filled with notes, but it is pretty much just a basic room.

Marlowe himself is still asleep, tangled up in the sheets with one arm flung over his eyes...

Well.

Eye and eyepatch.

"Basic idea..." He accepts and slides them on (with a bit of fumbling, one must admit, but he's gentle), and then blinks.

"Can you see better or worse?"

Darren has a pretty strong perscription.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
"Worse, I think. It's all...sharp, but too sharp and slightly warped." He blinks again and slips them off, handing them over.

"Might work better if I had two eyes, of course. It fucks with things."

"It shouldn't, for these. One day perhaps we'll go bother an optometrist. But from the sounds of things, you're fine."

"I should hope so." Losing his other eye would be worse then losing his hands.

Far, far worse.

"Who knows. They might have something useful to say."

Darren shrugs, and places his glasses back on.

"Reading by candlelight doesn't hurt. Stop it?"

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"Something like that."

Darren considers going for his clothes. Instead, stretches languidly and makes himself comfortable again.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
"I shall just have to do all my reading here, then."

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
"Do you go home a lot?"

Darren didn't have the impression it was safe.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
"What do you mean by home?"

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
"I don't know. You tell me."

Pulling the sheet a little higher up and running a hand through his hair.

"London. I haven't been back since I've arrived here."

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not safe?"

He doesn't imagine it would be.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
"London's never been safe. That's part of it's charm. I just don't know what to do."

"I'm settling down in Berlin now. After having been stabbed off my Hamlet."

Bastards.

"I've been asked to do Dracula."

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Darren gets a raised eyebrow.

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
'Dracula, for the Berlin theatre. Do you know what vampires are?"

Mmm, vampires.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
"Haven't the faintest idea."

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
"A vampire is a mythological creature that sucks the blood of a human being to survive past death."

He leans over, rolling onto one elbow.

"Very sexual."

"Argh," says Darren, lowering himself to nip the side of Kit's throat.

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
He tilts his head back, giving him more of a target.

"Aaaah."

[identity profile] literallyrotten.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
"Word is," murmurs Darren, against the skin, "they hypnotize their victims. Word is, the feelings of euphoria make feeding an intense experience, to say the least."

[identity profile] no-sin-but.livejournal.com 2007-08-09 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
"Make me immortal with a kiss?" He murmurs, lilting his soft voice up at the end to make it a question.
